Our PhD program has just been allocated several more full-funded lines for PhD students in 2020-21, and we've reopened applications (american.edu/soc/admissions/graduate-apply.cfm). With stellar scholars such as Laura DeNardis, Aram Sinnreich, Saif Shahin, Filippo Trevisan, Ericka Menchen-Trevino and others, the program focuses on the intersection of media, technology and democracy. Our latest PhDs did theses on global inequality in internet exchange points, commercial uses of country-level domain names, Turkish government censorship and social media, and protest movements in India around India's digital identity card. Can you spread the word? We're grateful! And excited about the generous windfall.
